Under the hood, the Arrival Blue Metallic was sprayed over the new inner wheelwells, engine cover, fan shroud, and fuse box. The fuse box, along with most of the underhood electronics and battery, were relocated to make room for the 26-inch wheels. Aside from the paint, the 5.3L V-8 benefits from a K&N intake and a Superchips programmer, while the rest of the drivetrain is stock, until you get to the shortened rear end. Moser axles make up for the reduced width and allow for the 10-inch wide rear wheels to tuck into the fenders.
Auto Toyz carried the blue from the top half of the Avalanche into the interior with blue suede that was sewn into the seats and wrapped over the dash, factory center console, visors, and sunroof shade. The remainder of the headliner was covered in dark gray suede. Auto Toyz' very own Anthony Mason fabricated a rear center console out of fiberglass to hold four Pioneer 10-inch TS-SW1041D subs and two Crossfire amps, a CFA30HC and a CFA404S, before it too was covered in blue suede. For the mids and highs, each door holds Kicker KS 6.2 component speakers. All of the audio begins at the JVC KW-AVX706 in-dash DVD receiver that also supplies video to four Provision headrest monitors and a 15-inch flip-down.
Kevin's Avalanche had its share of setbacks during its construction, since it did have to take a backseat to other projects at the shop. As a result, the build schedule was set back, but never abandoned. Special thanks go out to the guys at his shop who put in the extra effort to wrap everything up: Anthony, Daniel, Bret, and Keith Leprechaun.
